The one spirit of antichrist (Satan) called the man of sin (mankind) a sinner is the god of the kingdoms of this world (what the eyes see) . The one world government of lies that make the word of God without effect as the wisdom of this world. $$$$$
The father of lies the spirit of all antichrists uses sinners as antichrists (plural) He began his lies in the garden .Thou shall not surely die . Look at me (Sssssss) ) and live.
Took his legs out from under it to show Satan was not walking or understanding by the faith that alone comes from hearing God.
The glory of God left and will not return until the new heaven and earth appear . Then there will be no night

Right! I guess I'm not sure if the anti-christ meant in the book of Revelation is just this corrupt world system, or if it also means that there will be a one-world government, as there was before our nation became a free nation. You're right that anyone who doesn't believe in God or who is against Him - is classified as an 'antichrist" by the Bible. Six is a number that symbolically refers to man, in the Bible. I'm not sure what the triple 6's could mean in Revelation. The people of this world live for the things of this life, only. WHile true children of God live primarily for the future - after this life - life in heaven with God. Yes, there will be troubles throughout the rest of earth's existence. But when Jesus comes and takes all the saints of earth up to heaven, they will live in the "New Jerusalem" - which I believe means "in heaven with God" - and He Himself will be the light so that no sun or moon will be needed there. As you say, there will be no more sorrow then only joy.

Those are good verses to illustrate the truth of the fact that we can't expect to always escape the troubles of this life - and that in fact, God sees that such hardships are beneficial to our faith! And yes, we are to do what we can to avoid evil, always. True, the simple are unbelievers - wayward and without God's wisdom.
My favourite passage is Romans 5:3-5. God gave me this when I was suffering. God can use anything for our good.
"More than that, we rejoice in our suffering, knowing that suffering produces endurance and endurance produces character and character produces hope. And hope does not disappoint because God's love has been poured out through the Holy Spirit who was given to us."
"And we know God causes all things to work together for good for those who called According to his purpose." Romans 8:28

Thanks for your comment and verses on the subject! Yes, those are good verses on the subject, and I know of others. It's comforting to know that there is some good purpose to the suffering involved in hardships. It feels a lot more comforting, than if one feels a lot of confusion about it - in which one often questions God, rather than accepting what God has allowed to be!

Thanks for the reply. Yes his glory now hidden will be the light as it was the first three days until he saw sin in the heart of the god of this world . On day four the temporal corruption time keepers began the count down called under the Sun . The Sun and moon two time keepers will be under the feet of His bride in the new heavens and earth.
We should remember that God is light and not that he can create it temporally only . Being in his presence (light) can bring a glow and cover up ones nakendenes without him .
I would offer. The the spirit of antichrists as the god of this world began his deception speaking through creature seen in the garden in Genesis.. The father of lies a murderer from the beginning .
The spirit of the antichrists' worked in Cain as the first of the anti christs (many). The marked (666) man of sin moving Cain used to murder the first Christian, martyr Abel .
It established the pagan foundation .Out of sight out of mind. Plowed his brother under corn.
A good example in the new testament (Mathew 16) using Peter who had just confused the matter thinking he was the key that the gates of hell could never prevail against The same thing Catholic must confess. Peter in false pride fell from grace .When as one of the many antichrists' . Peter moved the the spirit of the antichrist' to do the will of the antichrist Satan. Peter forbidding Jesus from doing his three day labor of love or work of faith
The Son of man Jesus having no power to rebuke the god of this world, as a apostle prophet. Jesus was given words from His unseen father working in the Son of man. And the father rebuked Satan ,saying to Peter "get behind me not seen" not Peter seen . Peter was forgiven of his blasphemy against the Son of man Jesus.
That window of forgiving blasphemy against the Son of man. Jesus closed when Jesus left . Today there is no forgiveness against blaspheming the Holy Spirit not seen .We walk by faith the eternal not be looking at the temporal
Matthew 12:31-32 Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men. And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come.
Three a number metaphor is used throughout the bible to indicate the "end of a matter ". or sealed . Using six three times identifies unconverted faithless mankind .(the mark of Cain) No need to turn it into a lying wonder that some seek after rather than walking by faith. The eternal not seen

Yes, there are many examples we can find of "anti-christs' in the Bible, since both godly and ungodly people are mentioned in the stories!
Those who refuse to let God be Master of their lives, through Jesus and HIs salvation - are those I would say can be described as having blaspheming against the Holy Spirit. Only and unless they repent and turn to God - can they be forgiven. Those who reject God have hell as their eternal destination unless they repent and become a true child of God in this life. After death, there is no moe opportunity to repent and be saved.
